Managing the visit home page test

When you create a new application in mabl, mabl automatically creates a plan called "Verify home page load and login." This plan runs a basic smoke test called "Visit home page" once every four hours free of charge. 

This article explains how to configure settings for the visit home page test, including how to…

• Add a login flow
• Turn off the visit home page test
• Run the visit home page test on different browsers

Adding a login flow

If the application URL points to a login page, take the following steps to add an auto-login flow: 

1. Open the plan details page for "Verify home page load and login" for the application that requires the login.
2. Click on the edit pencil.
3. Scroll to the Advanced section.
4. Toggle on "Login credentials required."
5. Select the mabl credentials required to log into your app.
6. Save your settings.

Copy with custom login

Auto-login flows do not work if the login requires more than username and password or if the login isn't in English. If auto-login is unable to log into your application, you can create a copy of the link crawler test and add your own custom login flow to it:

1. Open the test details page for "Visit home page".
2. Click on the Copy with custom login button.
3. Select the login flow you want to use instead.
4. Click on the Duplicate button.

Mabl generates a copy of the visit home page test with your custom login flow. You can run this copy of the visit home page test ad hoc or add it to a plan.

To turn off the visit home page test for a specific application, take the following steps:
